AAA ENCOURAGES
EXPANSION OF
FARM STORAGE SPACE
Anticipating an increasing
deficiency in grain storage
space in many sections of the
country, U. S. Department of
Agriculture officials are urging
farmers in North Carolina
:o expand storage facilities for
ill grains, it was announced by
W. Herbert White of Caswell
county, member of the state
\AA committee.
"It now appeals," Committeenan
White said, "that with
wholesale changes in the world
marketing picture there will be
ncreased need for storage facilities
on the farm."
Even now, the Caswell farmer
added, storage space for
jrain is lacking in many secJons
of the country.
"Terminal spade will be ti?ht
ihis Fall," he added, "and trapsx>rtation
will be, available only
ror grain having pre-arranged
storage at its destination."
"ine aaa commiiieemaii icninded
that adequate storage
facilities are necessary in order
that eligible farmers may take
advantage of government loans
3n any crop. Crops placed unier
government loan must be
stored in bins or warehouses
which meet government specifications
for safe keeping of the
commodities. ! , i
Farmers who increase farm
storage facilities now will be
protecting their own interests
against possible future conditions
under which terminal
space would be inadequate to
accommodate crops which must
oe stored. Here the committee- i
man cited the extremely un-1
favorable conditions under
which Canadian wheat farmers
tried to salvage 1940-41 grain,
hundreds of thousands of bushels
of which was left in the
fields for months, exposed to
the weather because storage
space was lacking. - ! j "

Rhinebart Home
Destroyed By Fire
Wednesday Night
The home of Mrs. Ida Rhinehart
and her son, Frank T.
Rhinehart, on Savannah Creek
beyond Webster, was destroyed
by fire, early Tuesday night.
The building and contents were
a total loss.
Tne Kninenart iamny was in
Sylva at the time. Neighbors
saw the fire and turned in the
alattXL. The Sylva Fire Department
answered the call, but it
was too late to be of much
service. The kitchen all was
burned away, and the interior
of the main part of the building
was completely destroyed.
Neighbors and firemen were unable
to rescue but a small part
of the furnishings of the home.
The house has been the home
of the Rhineharts for fifty years
or more. It is understood that
the family will occupy a smaller
house on the farm, for the present.

Farm Security Administration
is the agency of the U. S. Department
of Agriculture which
assists the low income farm
families t0 take full advantage
of the other services of the national
agricultural program,
such as soil improvement, diversified
farming, and increased
production for home use, Mr,
Davis said. It enables the disadvantaged
farmers to make use
of the improved farming practices
developed by the Extension
Service and State Agricultural
Experiment Station
thereby encouraging them to
become self-sufficient by producing
a great majority of th<
food and feed needed on the
farm.
Due to the existing condition;
in the world today, there la ar
urgent need for farmers of thii
country to prepare for anj
eventuality, put their shoulden
squarely to the wheel and give
our government all necesdary
aid in the present national
emergency.
The Farm Security Administration
stands ready to offei
assistance to every farmer who
may require it. Any farmer in
Jackson County who needs help
should feel free to visit the office
